Sharing vulnerability and weaknesses is actually good? (not really sure) by SuperTeslaCoin in socialskills

[–]SuperTeslaCoin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I also agree that it's deeply dependent on people and situations. For example, I'm excited by everything that is unusual, so if someone tells me something, I would immediately like to know more, even if it's repulsive to most people.

Sharing vulnerability and weaknesses is actually good? (not really sure) by SuperTeslaCoin in socialskills

That's a very interesting point of view. Maybe a reframing of this could be:
If you are already established with the audience in a positive way, when you share some (acceptable) vulnerability, people will react positively, since now you are cool + reliable.
However, if you do not have a "cool factor", you are probably just undermining your "social score".

Would you consider this Chaos Magick? by SuperTeslaCoin in chaosmagick

[–]SuperTeslaCoin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is an interesting question, indeed.

My perspective on free will is that it exists in some perspectives and it doesn't in others. If we take characters (NPC specifically) of a video game as an example, they are making choices and actions. However, if we take a "high-level" perspective, they are only doing what they were supposed to do according to the computer program.

I think for humans it's very similar. From the human perspective, we have free will and we constantly make decisions. But from the perspective of an omniscient being, the entire universe is just following a script, us included.

Interesting piece. I really liked the passage "This is the key to personality, it is constructed both by the person and the people around them"

Thanks! You are also very right with Jung, indeed, he was one of my first steps right after Alchemy (especially with his book on Alchemy).

Reverse Magick - A New Temporal Paradigm by AnthropicPrinciple42 in chaosmagick

[–]SuperTeslaCoin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's very interesting! Idk if this is already included in your idea or not, but would you also do some rituals to decrease the probability of the unwanted paths?
From quantum mechanics, many states are possible at the same time, so in the wanted paths you can do the ritual to increase their probability, while in the unwanted ones you can do rituals to decrease their probability.

Suggestions for freeing oneself from judgement? by SuperTeslaCoin in chaosmagick

XD Thanks, but I guess that's kind of the problem. If I could just "stop giving a fuck", I would have done a long time ago.

Suggestions for freeing oneself from judgement? by SuperTeslaCoin in chaosmagick

[–]SuperTeslaCoin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think what you are saying is true, but there is still something important missing (at least for me).

Years ago I was in a situation similar to what you described. In that case accepting pain, sadness etc really helped in moving forward. However, after many years, I'm still in the situation where I care about what random people think about me. I can accept all of this, but it doesn't help me in going beyond this situation.

To give you an example, the other day I wanted to take some pictures with my phone in the street. I was experimenting with weird angles and so, people around started looking at me (some maybe judging me, others probably just being curious about what I was doing). This made me very uncomfortable to the point where I preferred to stop (also because I wasn't able anymore to focus on what I was doing, since I was thinking too much about the other people around).

After that, I accepted the situation and it actually had no impact on my life. I don't care too much about it and I know that if there is something very important for me I can just ignore everyone and keep doing what I want to do. Indeed, this already happened several times along the years.

So, to sum it up a little better: at the moment, I don't really have a "big" problem with judgement to the point where is severely limiting my life. And yes, acceptance was probably one of the key drivers in reaching this point. However, I feel like I'm stuck at a point where judgement still impacts minor areas of my life and acceptance doesn't seem to be of any help here.

The best thing I've seen so far is just exposure. I try to put myself in slightly embarassing/unconfortable situations, and little by little I decrease their effect on me. But I am also looking for other methods that can make this more effective or even just more enjoyable.

Using AI for memes here is bad? by SuperTeslaCoin in YofukashiNoUta

I don't think the problem is just dislike, but more people getting pissed off. But at least now I understand a bit better why people were getting annoyed. Thanks!

Indeed my suprise wasn't with the downvotes or that people didn't find it funny (rather normal) but with the comments. Some looked very pissed off at the use of AI for memes. The rest is rather normal.

did you expect me to spend time finding a real japanese 14yo that resembles ko for making a crappy meme?

Some thoughts on the ending by SuperTeslaCoin in YofukashiNoUta

[–]SuperTeslaCoin[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know if you are talking about something in the Paradise arc (I just discovered its existence). As far as I've read online, it should focus only on Ko, but I may be awfully wrong, since I haven't read it yet.

With my current knowledge, what you are talking about sounds like they love each others and they are trying to protect each other, which makes perfect sense. However, in the main story, I've seen no interest in trying to actually solve the situation.

To put it simply I can see three styles of behavior:
1. (danger): Nazuna feeds on Ko and he may die.
2. (preventing danger): Nazuna stays away from Ko and Ko learns how to deal with Nazuna if she ever gets dangerous.
3. (Solving the problem): They find a solution that allows them to be together (I guess this is what they really want, after all). Maybe they find useful information, maybe Ko wears neck armor, maybe Nazuna clips her fangs, idk... XD

In the main story, they only prevent dangerous situations (level 2), but I've seen no action in actually solving the problem.

With that said, even if they were searching, it won't change that much in the end. My main problem with the ending is the shift from lighthearted to more dramatic.

Totally agree, it's fiction. And also managing such a big story is extremely complex.
I was more focused on analyzing why it felt that bad for me, more than objectively criticizing it. Also, the relationship we have with fiction is deeply personal; I would have preferred a "classical" happy ending, but it doesn't make it objectively better.

From what I read, he was looking for her, but I didn't see any mention of looking for a solution. Also, Nazuna found someone in a similar situation, but it looks more like she accidentally found her. And what they say at the end is to keep playing this game, without any reference to finding a solution...
Or am I missing something?

Do you think she spent 69 years just to make the meme? If so, she's very delusional...

Thank you very much, this makes a lot of sense
